How in the absolute gently caress is this game nearly 30 gigabytes? Is it crammed with hours of 1080p video or something?

My first time through I ran with easy and struggled with having enough painkillers. Second time on Hard I almost never had less than three. This game is all about memorizing enemy placement and lining up headshots in slo motion, so your first time through you might as well play on hard for the extra trophies/achievements. It will be challenging the first time no matter what setting.

Well so far they have yet to add more time to the clock and if it keeps going down the game will unlock around 6am for me. Lovely! Can't wait to play. Shame that Rockstar refuses to confirm if there is a replay editor available. Let alone larger multiplayer battles. But I guess 32 players is too much for a game like this.

Gunder posted:Usually it's just uncompressed sound or textures. Probably both. That, and early an interview was posted with the lead PC dev and he said the textures are 4 times as big compared to the console textures. Rockstar has also been trying really hard on making the story elements of the game better so that's why the audio is largely uncompressed. Plus there is a lot of motion capped stuff, but I'm not sure if that directly relates to the large file size.

That's funny, Amazon Canada says my copy shipped earlier today and should arrive tomorrow. And I picked free shipping and stuff to, so I guess it's time to be disappointed when it's actual arrival is next week. I can still hope though. Hell, I just pre-ordered the PC version yesterday. 22 Eargesplitten posted:If I remember right, Euphoria also takes up a lot of space.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I think I beat it between 11 and 12 hours. That's playing with Soft Lock on Normal difficulty. From what I hear, that's about the norm for everyone, though. Yeah, if you go for Hard it might take you a bit longer. I think I clocked in close to 15 hours on the first playthrough. Hardcore/Old School were a lot shorter, though, becuase I knew exactly what to expect out of each level, how to approach the targets, and most importantly, where the extra painkillers are located. Hell, I think that last part alone makes the game dramatically easier even when the targets aim better and hurt more.

There's a TON of detailed texture work in this game. Max himself will usually get reskinned three or four times per level depending on what happens to him, and every other character has multiple outfits throughout the course of the game, and they all have texture mapping for cloth movement when they walk. It's kinda nuts.

The only time 8v8 works is in Gang Wars because you don't spawn right next to someone ready to kill in you before you can even switch to dual wield

I'm tempted to get the PC version just so I can quickly rank up/school all the PC players with my two week headstart.

 Man people get so angry when they dumped on by dual 1911's  and I would like to know what this "garbage stinkyhole" thing is. Also, did people get really back will I was away playing Dragon's Dogma or was there a huge influx or new players? Either way it was awesome going 64-17 on Branco Headquarters DM even while nearly everyone else was using Mini-30's.

I think that might be why you went 64-17 on Branco. That is seriously not the place to be using a mini 30. You'll just get dumped on by someone using pistols, SMGs, or a shotgun and keeping things close. Is there any good resource for multiplayer loadout mechanics while we're waiting on the PC release? Like how to figure out how much poo poo will weight aside from just trial and error?

If this is 30 gigs, I can't wait to see how big GTA V is. I may need a new hard drive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6a8t3zL70A Zedicus Mann fucked around with this message at May 31, 2012 around 23:35 |

Does it take a lot to get to dual-wield the 1911s? I've got the pistol itself, but I can't dual-wield it yet.

Thank you for making the next four hours even more painful. I'm going to be so goddamn tired at work tomorrow, but I'm totally staying up a few extra hours to get my slow-motion shooting on.

You will die a lot, especially when you are still using the standard mag since it takes about a whole clip to drop someone without headshots, but it's worth it when you have dualies.

If you dual-wield the 1911 and the 92, do you only get half experience to each or do you basically get double experience?

I'm so glad I bought that 670 recently.Although this is going to eat up whatever free space I have left on my SSD if I install it on there. I guess I can just install it to my secondary hard drive (2TB 7200RPM), but I don't want the loading times to be as long as they were on the 360 version. Not that they were unbearable on that version.

Until then, just use one if those and a PT92. Kills while dual wielding count as a kill for both if the weapons. Though, personally I prefer dual PT92s with extended mags. 25 rounds of justice in each hand

As a pc Player, I can't say I honestly don't notice much difference on the pc version's videos at least, other than it being clearer looking. I'm thinking the PC version might shine in multiplyer graphics though, and not be lowered the way they seem to get on consoles.

I was pretty sure only counted as a kill for whatever gun did the killing. It wasn't until I started running a single 1911 that it really started leveling up.

I know in the killspam it includes both weapons you've used. I never checked my stats on the PS3, though.

I'm pretty sure when [PT92 M1911] or whatever pops up in the killfeed it will count for both weapons, but if you run out of ammo for one pistol it will only count for the pistol that did the killing.

Sorry BOYS, I was renaming one of my loadouts as one of the screens changed and the rename overlay got stuck. I couldn't get it off the screen. Had to restart my XBOX  Be back in a sec!

Decrypting has started on steam! It actually went smoothly for once! Looks like it'll take a while, though. No surprise given the file size. VVVVVVV EDIT: I'll try, but it's at 2 percent decryption after 10 minutes. I might not be able to play til I'm done with work tomorrow, unfortunately. This game is too goddamn huge.

Tell us how the game runs when you get a chance. I still have many hours of preloading to go. Also, remember to include system specs so we can get an idea of how terribly it runs.
